Are leaders born or made?

What will be an ideal response?


This question is meant to uncover assumptions that students may have about nature or nurture.
One way to facilitate the discussion is to encourage one group of students to debate one side of
the argument and another group of students the other side. The discussion can be summarized by
the instructor and conclude with a short lecture about a less extreme view in which we consider
that even if some leadership traits may be heritable, traits (like personality, for example) are
behavioral tendencies that do not entirely determine our behavior. For example, an extroverted
person may be more likely to enjoy public speaking but an introverted person can learn to be an
excellent speaker with practice even if the process is not easy initially.
